    Is It Really Legalism?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Apr 8, 2016
     | 3,051 views

    A study which identifies the difference between true and false legalism.

    During my decades of Christian ministry, the terms “legalism” and “legalist” have progressively been bandied-about within modern churches and their preachers/pastors. These terms have, primarily, been used to describe and condemn those Christians and churches that believe ...read more

     | 11,217 views

    What we have in this story is an account of Jesus paying tribute money. He is in Capernaum, which is His headquarters, and where he lived most of the time. The “temple tax” was collected annually, from every Jew over twenty, for the support of the templ

    -AD 29- Galilee Lesson: Taxes Paid (Exodus 30:11-15) Matthew 17:24-27 Moses is the one who began the practice of collecting taxes.

    Holy Communion: Contains MSG (Mighty Son of God; Much Saving Grace; More Strength for Good)

    It’s not unusual to see signs like this at restaurants: No MSG Added. Sometimes it’s the most prominent sign you’ll see, even bigger than the sign with the name of the restaurant on it!

    based on 1 rating
     | 26,137 views

    Paul had experienced much success in ministry, and yet he knew he had not arrived. He resolved to release the past, embrace the present, and anticipate the future. We must continue to seek all the Lord has for us. We cannot be complacent or satisfied.

    Committed to Serve Philippians 3:12-16 As you study the life of Paul, you realize the opportunities he once enjoyed. As far as men were concerned, Paul once had it all – power, position, and prestige. He was a rising star with a bright future within the religious elite in Jerusalem. All of ...read more

    The Pursuit Of Ministry Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 8, 2020
     | 4,003 views

    Things have changed much since the first century, and yet much remains the same. Paul realized the danger of majoring on the minor and minoring on the major. His insight still speaks for ministries today.

    The Pursuit of Ministry 1 Thessalonians 2: 4-9 We have spent much time laying the groundwork for our study in this precious book. Paul was well aware of the faithfulness and influence the church in Thessalonica had on those around them. He was encouraged with the presence of their faith, ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,819 views

    Jesus addressed the grave disappointment some will encounter as they stand before Him, seeking to gain entrance into His kingdom. These were certainly sincere in their efforts, but they were not found worthy to gain access to the kingdom.

    Absolute Certainty or Mere Sincerity? Matthew 7: 21-23 As we continue to study the Sermon on the Mount, we come to the portion of the message where Jesus addressed the grave disappointment some will encounter as they stand before Him, seeking to gain entrance into His kingdom. As we will ...read more

    An Offering Given In Purity Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 15, 2021
     | 2,703 views

    Every believer ought to be a philanthropist in that they seek the welfare of those around them. That is not to say that we support ungodly behavior, but that we seek to assist those in need.

    An Offering Given in Purity Matthew 6: 1-4 Today we begin a new chapter in our study of the Sermon on the Mount, but it is just a continuation of what we have studied in the past. We are still dealing with the message Jesus preached to the multitudes. His focus has shifted somewhat, but He ...read more

    Faith that works acts on God’s promises.

    Do you remember the advertising slogan, “They got their money the old fashioned way: they earned it!” It was very popular, and very clever.

    Living A Surrendered Life

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 20, 2024
     | 2,025 views

    As believers, we are to live out the transformation that has taken place on the inside. It is easy to state that one is a believer and follower of Christ; it is an entirely different matter to live in such a way that others can see evidence of the professed relationship with Christ.

    Living a Surrendered Life Ephesians 4:25-32 We have discussed much in recent weeks regarding the obligations and responsibilities of believers within the body of Christ. Paul has painted a detailed picture of how the church should look and the witness presented unto a watching world. While the ...read more

    For the next 4 weeks we will be studying from the John 5. This chapter deals with the authority and power that Jesus has. In fact, chapter 5 reveals Jesus to be the Authority over all of life. Jesus is equal with God and that is claimed later on in this chapter. So, He is due the same worship, ...read more

    Awesome God

    God revealed His omniscience as Jesus taught and amazed the crowds with His knowledge. God revealed His omnipotence as Jesus performed miracles and mighty works. How will you respond to God for being awesome in your life?
